* '''Quarters:'''  Didrik Stennes' quarters are located in the drive section of the USS ''Darwin''-A on Deck Eight.  The apartment is approximately 45m² in area and has an open, single-room layout.  A combined living and working area occupies the majority of the space, with a sofa, a table and chairs, storage shelves, a food replicator, and a workstation equipped with an LCARS computer terminal.  A vidscreen is mounted into the aft bulkhead for video communications and entertainment viewing.  Against the forward bulkhead is a sleeping alcove with a single berth, and a private bathroom with a toilet, sink, and sonic shower.  The windows along the starboard side provide a spectacular view of space.  While he doesn't have much in the way of memento, mounted on the walls in his quarters The Daystrom Award in Biosciences and the J. Bruce Bioengineering Award, given to him by Aron Kells.
Didrik's personality is highly influenced by the culture in which he was raised.  While Earth is the Federation capital and one of its most cosmopolitan worlds, there are areas where day-to-day life has changed little over the centuries.  Northern Norway, where the Stennes family calls home, is one of those areas.  Despite his knowing better, Didrik still carries with him a somewhat parochial and narrow view of the universe, and tends to view things from an Earth-centric perspective.  Joining Starfleet and serving with members of other species has opened his mind significantly, and has done much to challenge his outmoded thinking in many ways.  Didrik is at times taciturn and contemplative, and at others lively and jocular, mainly depending on the level of familiarity he has with his present company.
* '''Temperament:'''  Didrik adheres strongly to the old maxim, "Say what you mean and mean what you say," and often listens far more than he speaks.  He is even tempered and rarely raises his voice in anger or upset, leading him to occasionally be mistaken for aloof or distant.  On the contrary, he feels things deeply, something that leads to inner conflict in his role as a counselor, as he occasionally struggles to maintain a professional detachment.  Didrik uses humor (or at least what he thinks is humor) to relate to people, and copes with difficulties by not taking himself too seriously.  He values politeness, and often says "vær så snill" ("please") and "takk" ("thanks") when giving orders.

Didrik Nikolaj Stennes was born in Tromsø, on Earth, on 15 April 2360.  He was the fifth of six children born to Harald Stennes, a correspondent for the Federation News Service, and Hera Guldbrandsen, a philanthropist who worked for a Bajoran charitable organization. His parents' occupations were unusual for the mostly traditionalist Terran Stennes family, in that they involved significant time spent off-world. Didrik often stayed with his grandparents when his parents traveled for work, but occasionally had the chance to accompany them; he visited Bajor with his mother in 2370 and 2371, and during the summer of 2373 he visted Tellar, Vulcan and Alpha Centauri with his father. Typical for his family, Didrik developed a great fondness for the outdoors at an early age, and would remain an avid outdoorsman throughout his life. As a student, he showed an aptitude for the humanities and social sciences, but was average in mathematics and struggled in the physical sciences.
* '''Children:''None
 
* '''Parents:''' Harald Stennes (b. 2324) and Hera Guldbrandsen (b. 2323)
Didrik's father was reporting for the FNS on Betazed when the Dominion invaded and occupied the planet in 2374, leaving him stranded.  Didrik became preoccupied with learning everything he could about the war, often to the distraction of his school studies. By the time the war ended, Didrik decided he wanted to join Starfleet and become a tactician. His parents disapproved, as the Stenneses were not a military family, but didn't discourage his new ambition. He applied to Starfleet Academy after completing secondary school in 2378, but his grades and entrance exam scores fell short and he was rejected. Taking the advice from a family friend, Didrik enrolled at the University of Bergen, in the hope that excelling in tertiary studies might strengthen his Academy prospects. Majoring in military history and minoring in survival tactics, Didrik graduated from the University in 2382, reapplied to Starfleet Academy, and was accepted as part of the class of 2386.

Didrik's native language is Norwegian, and was educated solely in Norwegian Bokmål until age 14, and both Bokmål and Norwegian Nynorsk up through his university studies.  As a secondary and university student he learned English and French, and had a basic understanding of Bajoran as a result of his travels to Bajor with his mother.  His lack of non-Terran languages, and his limited mastery of Federation Standard put him at a disadvantage when compared with his Starfleet Academy peers.  While on duty, Didrik usually speaks English or Federation Standard, as the universal translator has a somewhat imprecise translation matrix for Norwegian.

===Starfleet Academy (2382-2388)===
As an Academy cadet, Didrik pursued a double major in Tactical and Helm/Navigation.  He briefly wrote for the Academy newspaper in his first year, and was a member of the junior varsity volleyball team in his second year.  Academically, he demonstrated exceptional strengths in survival, piloting, and diplomacy, but struggled in physics, biology, and engineering.  By the end of his second year, he had managed to bring his grade points average back over 3.0, but just barely.


In the fall of 2384, Didrik began his third year at the Academy on shaky ground.  Depressed at his poor performance in some of his core courses, and buckling under the stress of trying to catch up, he grew disillusioned with life as a Starfleet cadet, and withdrew from the Academy at the end of the first semester.  In early 2385, after leaving the Academy, Didrik accompanied his mother on an extended trip to Bajor.  Inspired by the success of the planet's reconstruction, but recognizing that much work was still left to be done, he relocated to Bajor and began working as a teacher in a village in Rakantha Province.


===Psychological Profile===
While there, Didrik met and fell in love with Elrem Tiro, a colleagueBy mid-2385, Didrik and Elrem were planning a holiday and had discussed moving in together.  Didrik's time on Bajor provided him with clarity and purpose, and rekindled his desire to resume his Academy studiesHis decision to leave Bajor came as a surprise to Elrem, who offered to leave everything and accompany Didrik back to Earth.  Didrik refused, and the hitherto happy relationship ended in acrimony.
Didrik dislikes crowds and raised voices, and avoids them whenever possibleHe is an outdoorsman and an explorer, an able hiker and mountaineer.  Didrik is fond of wordplay and sarcasm, and will take whatever opportunities he can to make a good-natured quipWhile fluent in Federation Standard English, he often configures his combadge to transmit simultaneous translation into Norwegian, mostly because he finds it amusing how the computer so frequently gets it wrong.


Didrik is his harshest critic, and has trouble accepting compliments or taking credit for things he succeeds atWhile he shrugs it off as Nordic modesty, he secretly is driven by a desire to fit in and be likedAn average tactician, Didrik has embraced his natural aptitude for Ops and Helm, and is looking for opportunities to grow in that area, rather than sit by and wait for a tactical post to open.  When on duty, he prefers to operate the helm manually rather than allow the NavComp to fly the ship. To that end, he has devised a number of unique console layouts that allow him to pilot the ship while monitoring other departments in the absence of an Ops officer on duty.
Resuming his studies in mid-2386, Didrik sailed through the remainder of his Academy classesHis marks improved significantly and he successfully defended his senior thesis, ''For My Son, For All Our Sons:  On the Use of Single-Soldier Guerrilla Tactics by the Cardassian Underground'', in late 2387Following the completion of a cadet cruise aboard the USS ''Belgrade'', Didrik graduated from Starfleet Academy on Stardate 238811.13, earning a commission at the rank of Ensign.


Physically, Didrik is bulkier than the average human.  He is self-conscious about his forehead, which he thinks is too large.  Born with a healthy Norwegian appetite, he has never met a food replicator that he didn't like, and he must make himself exercise regularly to avoid putting on too much weight.

Shortly after his return to active service aboard the USS ''Darwin''-A, Didrik was transferred to the ''Olympic''-class USS ''Blackwell'', whose primary theater of operations would be the Par'tha Expanse.  Didrik arrived at Deep Space 26 in January 2394, but before he could take up his position aboard ''Blackwell'', an emergency incapacitated everyone aboard the Starbase, leaving Lt. Commander Brell in command of the fledgling Andaris Task Force.  Didrik remained aboard ''Darwin'' to help coordinate the flow of information as a trio of away teams investigated DS26.

==Miscellany==
<br>{{LCARS-bar-heading|Family|110|COLOR=teal}}
* Federation Standard pronunciation of Didrik's surname "Stennes" is "STENZ," however the proper Norwegian pronunciation is "STENN-ess."
* '''Parents'''
* Didrik always refers to starships as feminine, and without a definite article (eg., "How will ''Enterprise'' make it back home without her warp core?")
** '''Harald Stennes:'''  Born in 2323.
* He doesn't smile, and hasn't since his kidnapping and torture.
** '''Hera Guldbrandsen:'''  Born in 2327.
* While not opposed to using the holodeck for simulating natural environments, holographic characters give Didrik 'the creeps.'
* '''Siblings'''
** '''Katarine Stennes:'''  Born in 2353.
** '''Ulf Stennes:'''  Born in 2355, Ulf was the Stennes family's 'favorite son'.  Gifted with intelligence, talent, and a magnetic personality, Ulf seemed to be destined for greatness, but lacks one vital ingredient: ethics. A trickster and conman from an early age, Ulf's stellar intellect and interpersonal skills weren't enough to forgive his questionable character, and he has spent much of his adult life estranged from the Stennes family and engaged in various criminal pursuits.  As of December 2393, he is living in Norway once again, having been released from a period of imprisonment.

** '''Tobias Stennes:'''  Born in 2357.
** '''Søren Stennes:''' Born in 2358.
** '''Hanne Stennes:''' Born in 2363.

** '''Pål Guldbrandsen''' (2299–2387) and '''Gro Sæther''' (b. 2300), maternal grandparents


==Quotations==
<br>{{LCARS-bar-heading|Relationships|110|COLOR=teal}}
'''STENNES:''' That's all any of us can do, I guess. To believe. To choose. They're not really that different from each other, are they?

''(''Columbia'', at risk of losing two away teams on a planet inhabited by a mysterious telepathic creature. Didrik, a victim of telepathic torture, has had enough of the attempts to communicate with it.)''<br>'''STENNES:''' Forgive me if I sound like an ignorant Terran, but while we stand here discussing who whispered what into the mind of whom else, we have nearly a dozen people on that planet who are counting on us to bring them back.  Now the deflector is calibrated and ready to transmit, so I suggest we get on with reestablishing real, '''''verbal''''' contact with our people.  Unless you all would rather we just stand around here and bend some spoons.

! rowspan="2" | {{Tile Officer|Aron Kells|Red|&nbsp;}}
| Didrik and Aron evolved a complicated romantic relationship after Aron's first accident and his ill-advised admission to Didrik that the two had been in a relationship in that Aron's future. Though they attempted to begin a relationship then, and maintain it after Aron had transferred, the romance did not last.

! rowspan="2" | {{Tile Officer|Brell|Gold|&nbsp;}}
| Brell’s relationship with the Darwin’s counselor and second officer is complicated. The two grew close while the crew of Darwin was exiled on Turisan II quite close. Since then they have kissed twice and enjoyed a few secret rendezvous. Didrik somewhat overwhelmed by the complexities of Bolian relationships wished for them to take things slow leaving Brell anxiously awaiting the day when they speak to his spouses about their affair. That day came a very long time later after he had broken things off with Didrik.
